dying star

The smell of smoke in my hair
Following the promises of laughter and ale
She sings so sweetly to us
our cups flow with feeling

I wish
The sultry tones that mean nothing
I wish
That moment on display in my hall
I wish
I knew you back then, when the sun was colder
I wish
The stars sung for you too

So we shout instead
And the fire burns higher
The moon sleeps and the stars tire
This is where we are welcome

The dew on the window whipping by
Feeling my heart pulse, my head lies
I can’t help but smile
At the crackling of the fire

She sings so sweetly
I wish for a breath between us
I wish, oh I really do
I will see you again
